WEBVTT 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:07.200 Lionus Tech Tips coverage of CES 2015 is brought to you by Phantom Glass. Visit 00:00:05.319 --> 00:00:12.320 store.fantom.glass for the best darn screen protectors out there as well as 00:00:09.960 --> 00:00:17.199 HyperX. All right, so before we were so rudely interrupted there, we were trying 00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:18.880 to start a video here in the Intel PR 00:00:17.199 --> 00:00:23.199 suite. Now, this is the first time I've ever actually managed to get in touch 00:00:20.400 --> 00:00:28.480 with Intel's PR folks. a uh an error that both sides are we're sort of quick 00:00:25.840 --> 00:00:31.439 to hug it out over and uh you know make up and we're going to work together 00:00:29.679 --> 00:00:36.480 moving forward in the future. But the whole point of what they're showing here 00:00:33.680 --> 00:00:40.399 is the importance of benchmarks and not just benchmarks but benchmarks that can 00:00:38.160 --> 00:00:43.520 be validated and that can be trusted. So there's three basic types of benchmarks 00:00:42.160 --> 00:00:47.200 in the world. There's going to be your consortium benchmarks where there's a 00:00:45.360 --> 00:00:50.879 group of large companies that all work together to keep each other in check and 00:00:49.520 --> 00:00:55.440 make sure that everything is fair and balanced in the results. There's going to be your open- source benchmarks that 00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:59.920 are going to have communities behind them that are going to I mean sometimes maybe you got to pay 20 bucks like the 00:00:58.399 --> 00:01:04.479 one that's over to my right there in order to have a peek at the source code, make sure there's no tom foolery. We'll 00:01:03.199 --> 00:01:09.920 talk about that one in a minute. Then there's your closed benchmarks which often you'll have to pay an exorbitant 00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:14.240 fee in order to get access to the source code and poke at it. So really there's 00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:18.240 no community moderation. So the point of all this was they're showing off Tablet 00:01:16.240 --> 00:01:21.680 Mark. Why do they care about Tablet Mark? Well, Tablet Mark's from Bapco. 00:01:20.159 --> 00:01:27.520 And the reason they care about it is because for the first time in a while, 00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:29.680 Intel has what they feel is a clear and 00:01:27.520 --> 00:01:35.439 solid lead in the tablet. Excuse me. Sorry, did I say tablet? I meant PC 00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:37.600 space. Uh PCs that are extremely thin, 00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:40.400 have screens on one side, backings on the other, not a ton of IO. Okay, I'm 00:01:39.119 --> 00:01:44.240 just going to call them tablets. I'm sorry guys. So they have a the a 00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:49.360 position in the tablet space that puts them in a well a very very strong 00:01:47.520 --> 00:01:53.520 position moving forward. So here they're showing off some pretty crazy stuff. 00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:59.680 This right here is a CoreM5y70. This is a Broadwell based chip that turbos up to 00:01:56.360 --> 00:02:00.960 2.6 GHz. So the kinds of use cases that 00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:07.360 they want to show off with tablet Mark are going to be your typical tablet things. So adding filters to a photo, 00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:11.840 web browsing, video playback, stuff like that. And this one in particular is a 00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:15.680 consortium benchmark. So there's a group a large group of companies very large 00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:19.440 companies that are trying to make it so that well it's in it's important for 00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:23.520 them to validate on their side but also so that consumers know what to look for 00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:28.160 when they're shopping for a tablet. Now, moving over here, we've got an example 00:02:25.760 --> 00:02:31.520 of this is a this is just an open completely open benchmark. And this 00:02:29.680 --> 00:02:35.920 one's really different from that one in that it's called CR Expert. And unlike 00:02:33.840 --> 00:02:42.800 that one, which is actually Android, iOS, and Windows crossplatform, allowing 00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:44.640 us to finally actually know how the iPad 00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:48.400 compares to an Android tablet compared to a Windows table. Excuse me, PC. 00:02:46.640 --> 00:02:53.040 Sorry, did I say tablet again? compared to a very slim Windows PC with a screen 00:02:50.720 --> 00:02:56.239 on one side. This one only runs on Chrome OS. It does the same kind of 00:02:54.640 --> 00:02:59.360 stuff. So, it's going to run through your, you know, your typical web 00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:02.560 browsing, look up your stock portfolio, whatever else the case may be. But the 00:03:01.200 --> 00:03:06.319 reason this one came about was because we didn't really have a way of knowing 00:03:04.480 --> 00:03:10.560 aside from, I don't know, like click refresh with like a stopwatch and see if 00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:14.080 you can figure out like how fast the page loaded. We didn't really have a way 00:03:12.080 --> 00:03:18.879 to quantify, well, who makes the best Chromebook? And here they've got some 00:03:15.519 --> 00:03:22.000 solutions from, you know, Intel and 00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:23.360 brand N or brand A. Actually, they did. 00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:27.840 They put labels right on it. I guess it's cuz this is a press suite and not necessarily meant to have people running 00:03:26.480 --> 00:03:31.360 around in here videoing. But the idea was to quantify, well, which Chromebook 00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:35.280 actually is the best and gives you the best battery life after all. And it's 00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:39.440 not an Intel benchmark. This is an open benchmark. So, so the point of working 00:03:37.280 --> 00:03:43.599 with these guys is it's going to enable a new types of projects that we not 00:03:41.760 --> 00:03:46.640 couldn't necessarily tackle in the past. So, you guys have loved seeing stuff 00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:50.080 like our whole room liquid cooling thing. Well, we've had a lot of people 00:03:48.480 --> 00:03:53.120 ask us for stuff like, "Hey, it's back to school. I got to buy a notebook. How 00:03:51.760 --> 00:03:58.080 do I determine which one's the best one?" Well, with with some assistance on 00:03:56.000 --> 00:04:01.360 streamlining the process, we want to hear from you guys what type of content 00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:04.879 you want to see from us in terms of stuff that's more roundup oriented 00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:08.560 because we don't have a team of, you know, 16 people to run around and, you 00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:13.439 know, benchmark Chromebooks all day. So if these guys are pointing us in the right direction, providing us with a 00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:16.400 bunch of stuff from Intel, we go and we find stuff from competitors. We get some 00:04:15.200 --> 00:04:24.000 feedback from those guys as well. Make sure we're presenting the most balanced suite possible. That gives us way a way 00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:27.919 more authoritative voice on this kind of what should you buy type content. So 00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:32.960 leave comments on this video. I will be checking them out. Let us know what you 00:04:30.080 --> 00:04:38.320 want us to benchmark particularly on the mobile side. So guys, thanks for 00:04:34.960 --> 00:04:41.120 watching this video uh in the Intel like 00:04:38.320 --> 00:04:45.520 PR suite that I've never been present for before. They have so much cool stuff 00:04:42.960 --> 00:04:48.880 here. Guys, don't forget to subscribe to Linus Tech Tips so you don't miss any of 00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:53.400 our CES coverage. Also, check out our sponsors. So, a huge thanks to Phantom 00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:56.479 Glass. You can visit them over at store.fantom.glass. They make the best 00:04:54.960 --> 00:05:00.080 iron screen protectors that we've ever seen for mobile devices. They're Gorilla 00:04:58.400 --> 00:05:04.320 Glass, so they're perfectly clear. They're Gorilla Glass, so they're scratch resistant. and they have a nano 00:05:03.199 --> 00:05:08.160 coating on the bottom that makes it virtually impossible to apply them with 00:05:06.400 --> 00:05:11.840 bubbles underneath them. So, thanks to those guys for sending us here and also 00:05:09.520 --> 00:05:14.280 a shout out to HyperX. Those guys have great content over on their YouTube 00:05:13.120 --> 00:05:19.199 channel. It's youtube.com/hyperex. Lots of gaming oriented stuff and they are a huge part 00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:23.360 of the reason we're able to be here as well. Thanks again for watching and uh 00:05:21.280 --> 00:05:27.680 I'll see you at the next video where we'll be showing off Skull Trail. Wait, 00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:31.680 that's from 2008. Hold on. Where's he going with this? Watch on to find out.
